Fatherhood Delayed

"No, Caitlyn's not here yet." If I had a dime for every time I've said that this week...

Caitlyn is further proving that she's in control by slowing the process down. That's the Reed motto... Hurry up and wait. Hurry up and wait. Hurry up and wait.

Amy's doing incredibly well (don't you think she looks great). Caitlyn's room is completely prepared. She has more clothes than she will ever wear. She has more toys than she'll ever play with. She has more diapers than she'll ever crap in (okay, that's an over-exaggeration).

We're set and ready to do this thing... except we got no kid. And so we wait...

Parents or soon to be parents think they are in control. Learn now that your children are actually in control, they let us parents think we are, but they really are. As parents we accept this and learn to do what ever is necessary to make sure they succeed. We learn to sacrifice for them and their future. Enjoy your daughter and Amy this time will never repeat seize the moment and remember it. This is your future impact on the world invest in it.

Amy looks great. I am so happy for you guys.
Jeff, I’m gonna ask Scott for your number so I can call you a few days after the debut. Is that OK? I mean we got history man, and a congratulatory post on fB or Run With God just ain’t gonna work for me.
